Memorial Day

I hope everyone is enjoying a safe and fun Memorial Day weekend. Remember this day is to honor those who have and are protecting us allowing us to live in this great country.

Destin is now officially into the Summer tourist crush. For the next 12 or 13 weeks it will be wall to wall cars on Hwy 98 and the beaches will be packed. And if it rains don’t even think about getting on the roads. If the tourist can’t be on the beach they are going shopping. Consider yourself warned! lol

This past week was a little strange. Thursday night I stopped in at Landshark Pizza to listen to BT Turner play. A bunch of families were there with kids running around having a good time. BT can keep any type of crowd entertained. I stayed for a while as Jason came in with his little girl and Steve also can in. It was an enjoyable night.


Friday night Sunshine Cindy and I joined our Parrot Head friends for a phlocking at the Rotten Apple. It was a country themed night with Robert Wayne Walkup and the boys playing. A big crowd showed up in their best country wear. The Apple took good care of us. It was a great night of dancing and money raising.

Saturday morning Sunshine Cindy woke up sick. She had a bad fever and aches and pains all over. We had a Memorial Day party to go to at Bobby and Darla’s but Sunshine Cindy was not going anywhere. We had a couple of party platters on order at Publix that I picked up. I went to the party and Sunshine Cindy stayed home and basically slept all day. Her fever broke in the early evening and she got a good night’s sleep. The party was a lot of fun. This was their 22nd year doing this party to honor our service members. They do a crawfish boil, deep fry some turkeys and everyone brings a dish to share. Jeff and the Camaro’s played music and BT followed with his usual fun show! It’s a great time for a great cause.

Sunday Sunshine Cindy was better but still not up to going out. I got out of the house for a few minutes and went up to Landshark Pizza. Paige was working the bar and a steady stream of folks were coming in. I had a pizza and a couple of PBR’s. Traffic was heavy but moving. A small fender bender happened right outside Landshark that started to back up traffic but all in all it was not too bad in the middle of the afternoon. When I got back home Sunshine Cindy and I sat on the back patio and relaxed for the rest of the evening.

My sports teams were one and one this week. Tampa Bay Lightning lost game seven and missed out on going to the Stanley Cup finals. But the Cleveland Cavs blew past Toronto and are now in the finals. So all I can say is Go Cavs!

I want to remind everyone that we now have our Crab Island Mambo tee shirts and tank tops on sale for just $5 each. Supplies are limited as we try to sell them out.
